Question

Choose the active voice of : “Butter is made from milk by us.”

• A. We made butter from milk
• B. We make butter from milk
• C. We had make butter from milk
• D. We has been making butter from milk

Hint:

To change from passive to active, the agent (after 'by') becomes the new subject. The verb tense stays the same but changes form (e.g., Simple Present Passive 'is done' becomes Simple Present Active 'do/does').

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Identify the tense and structure of the passive sentence. “is made” is the Simple Present Passive. The object is 'Butter', and the subject (agent) is 'us'.
Step 2: Convert to active voice. The subject of the passive sentence ('us') becomes the subject of the active sentence ('We'). The object ('Butter') moves after the verb.
Step 3: Change the verb form. The Simple Present Passive ('is made') changes to the Simple Present Active. For the subject 'We', the correct form is 'make'.
Step 4: Construct the final sentence. The resulting active sentence is: "We make butter from milk."
